A Syst-OMICS Approach to Ensuring Food Safety and Reducing the Economic Burden of Salmonellosis.

The Syst-OMICS consortium is sequencing 4,500 genomes and building an analysis pipeline for the study of genome evolution, antibiotic resistance and virulence genes. Metadata, including phenotypic as well as genomic data, for isolates of the collection are provided through the Foodborne Syst-OMICS database (SalFoS), at https://salfos.ibis.

Antimicrobial susceptibility and multi-drug resistance of Salmonella enterica subspecies enterica serovars in Sudan.

This study was undertaken to determine the antimicrobial resistance patterns of Salmonella enterica subspecies enterica recovered from human, food, water, and animal samples collected in Khartoum State, Sudan. A total of 64 Salmonella isolates belonging to 28 different serovars were tested for their susceptibility to 13 antimicrobial agents. The majority of isolates (98.

Phage typing.

Phage typing is a rapid, economical, reliable, and reproducible technique, requiring no specialized equipment, for fingerprinting disease-causing agents for epidemiological investigation and surveillance.

Efficacy of recombinant sialoglycoprotease in protection of cattle against pneumonic challenge with Mannheimia (Pasteurella) haemolytica A1.

Secreted recombinant sialoglycoprotease fusion protein (Gcp-F) of Mannheimia (Pasteurella) haemolytica A1 was examined for its ability to protect cattle from experimental challenge with M. haemolytica A1. Five M.
